摘要：The world is facing a serious energy crisis all over the world due to development in industrial and transportation sectors and population explosion as well. So there is a need to find out the alternative techniques. Ethanol is a renewable energy resource derived from the domestic resources like the waste tissue paper, corn, wheat straw, algae, food and newspaper waste mixture and also from paper waste. Present study deals with the Production of Ethanol from the waste tissue paper by the simultaneous saccharification. Waste tissue paper samples were collected from different restaurants. Sampling strategy was the composite sampling. Ethanol was prepared from tissue paper waste and paper waste with different ratios of sulfuric acid. The variation in the quality of ethanol is due to the raw material used. Quality assessment parameters were also measured. All the results of quality parameters were within the range of pure ethanol. Quality assessment parameters showed that ethanol produced meet the ASTM quality standards indicating that used/waste tissue paper can be used as a substitute to the traditional energy fuels as well as protect the environment.
